Subsequent British excavators believed they had found evidence that Glueck was off by some three centuries and that Edom actually dated to the seventh century B.C..

后来的英国发掘者们认为他们发现证据表明，格鲁伊克推测的历史年代存在三个世纪的误差，以东王国实际只能上溯到公元前7世纪。

It also happened to be where the American rabbi and archaeologist Nelson Glueck unabashedly proclaimed in 1940 that he had discovered the Edomite mines controlled by King Solomon.

1940年，美国犹太教拉比兼考古学家尼尔森·格鲁伊克(Nelson Glueck)公然宣称他所发现的由所罗门王控制的以东矿就在此地。
